Iyanla Vanzant's Quote

‎"You can accept 

or reject 

the way you are treated by other people, 

but 

until you heal the wounds of your past, 

you will

 continue to bleed. 

You can bandage the bleeding 

with food , 

with alcohol, 

with drugs, 

with work, 

with cigarettes, 

with sex, 

but eventually, it will all ooze through and stain your life.

 You must find the strength 

to open the wounds, 

stick your hands inside, 

pull out the core of the pain that is holding you 

in your past, 

the memories, 

and make peace with them."
